The Provincial Court Family Rules and its forms changed a lot in 2021. The new form numbers, names and descriptions are very different from those before 2021. For example, the old Form 6 (Referral Request) has nothing to do with the new Form 6 (Reply to an Application About a Family Law Matter). Be vigilant and make sure you're not relying on any information about Provincial Court Family Rules and forms from before 2021.
